Hi,

I lately discovered that being root all the time is dangerous and must be avoided...
Trying to install (the late version of wine) however, I cannot for some reason configure the source when I run as user.
When I type tools/wineinstall from x-konsole I get:

[ody@localhost wine-20030911]$ tools/wineinstall
WINE Installer v0.74

Running configure...

./configure: line 88: conf5795.sh: No such file or directory
./configure: line 89: conf5795.sh: No such file or directory
chmod: failed to get attributes of `conf5795.sh': No such file or directory
./configure: line 201: conf5795.file: No such file or directory
./configure: line 949: config.log: No such file or directory

Configure failed, aborting install.


Line 88and 89 of configure is:
echo "#! /bin/sh" >conf$$.sh
echo "exit 0" >>conf$$.sh


The problems with configure seem to disappear when I manually configure being root.
Unfortunately though, the command tools/wineinstall doesn't run when i am root.
Can someone tell me how can i fix that?
Is the problem about permissions?
THANKS
